Welcome to Unblocked with Jessica Smarro, the podcast for bold conversations, deep shifts, and real freedom. We go beyond surface-level hacks and dive straight into the real work of unlearning the conditioning, rewiring the patterns, and reclaiming the parts of you that were never broken, just buried.
Each episode is a bold invitation to challenge your programming, expand your inner freedom, and lead a life that actually feels like yours. This is where insight meets integration, where success meets soul, and where high performers come to feel more fully alive.
You are already whole. Now let’s live like it.

Ep. 138 Stop Being the Bottleneck: Joe Patneaude on Scaling Your Life & Business Without Burnout
Are you the bottleneck in your own business or life?
In this episode of Unblocked, I sit down with Joe Patneaude, creator of the STAR Scalability Method, to unpack why so many high-performers unknowingly build businesses that drain them instead of freeing them. For 15 years, Joe has been coaching leaders in financial services to scale smarter, delegate with clarity, and build teams that align with their values, not just their bottom line.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying your entire business on your back, or you’re stuck in “do more, be more” mode, this conversation is your wake-up call. Joe shares how the STAR Method helps business owners shift from solo-grinding to strategic scaling, without losing control of what matters most. Joe drops powerful insights on leadership, scalability, and unlearning outdated success strategies that are keeping you stuck.
